Lemon belonged to a coworker who dumped her after adopting her as a puppy and having her for 4 years… he dumped her at the shelter where she stopped eating.. drinking.. urinating and walking.. she wouldn’t even interact with volunteers.. Lemon was said to have been going after the families female dog only after being starved for 6 days by a neighbor who was supposed to be watching her and the families 3 other dogs… Lemon was so severely shut down she was scheduled for euthanasia so I went and picked her up. The rescue who had originally backed her abandon her with me claiming they had no money.. Lemon was severely ill when I got her and required almost 1k In medical care I provided out of pocket. I am currently fundraising for lemon to receive training for her fear and inability to trust people.. she is so loving when she knows you.. quiet.. silly.. potty trained.. leash trained and crated trained.. she needs an experienced home with no animals or small children.
